A shrine with a strong connection to Empress Jingū, affectionately known locally as "Ofuro-san." It features a main hall (honden) built in the three-bay flowing style (sankayura-zukuri) from the late Muromachi period, designated as an Important Cultural Property, as well as a stone five-story pagoda.

History

According to tradition, the shrine's origins date back approximately 1,800 years, when Empress Jingū stopped at Ashihara-no-Tsu (Ōkawa Enotsu) in Chikugo Province on her return from the conquest of the Three Han kingdoms. At that time, the Azumi clan member Isonomaru enshrined the deity Shōdomei. The Azumi clan has presided over the rituals for generations. The current main hall was rebuilt by Kamimura Masamori during the Sengoku period. Both the main hall and the stone five-story pagoda are designated as Important Cultural Properties of Japan.

What visitors say

The shrine grounds feature a large camphor tree said to be approximately 2,000 years old, and in the morning, an artificial mist creates a fantastical atmosphere. Visitors can receive formal prayers (goshinji) at the vermilion-painted worship hall (haiden). At night, the shrine is enveloped in a quiet ambiance. While lines of worshippers may form, it is a shrine with a refreshing and calm atmosphere.
